It turned into a lengthy project with some damage found as we went but, these guys did everything with a smile! Alex and his team went above and beyond to keep our house functional while going through the process and were so easy to work with.

The project included changing out a second floor window and matching old siding which Trevor handled so professionally. Stacy is the best drywaller we have ever encountered and Denver installed 2 fan lights beautifully. Tony and Brandon worked so hard tearing out and measuring. Along with Trevor, they probably each made 15,000 steps a day. Already thinking of our next project and will request this team!!

Some folks just work for a paycheck. Ryan McNaughton does so much more than that. He is a skilled…read morecraftsman who builds porches that are works of art: porches cantilevered over cliffs, porches wrapped around mature trees -- and in our case, just plain ol' porches, too. He seems to truly love and take pride in his work. I interviewed a number of contractors for our porch replacement project, and spoke with references. I have to admit I was a touch skeptical of the absolutely glowing reviews I heard from his references at first. (Were they family members? Would anyone give *my* work such glowing reviews other than my mom?) But after seeing him in action, I absolutely echo all those raves: Ryan is the gold standard. He is fantastically professional, meticulous, and detail oriented; he communicates clearly; and his pricing is on par with other contractors in the area. He says what he means and means what he says. We only have one porch on this house, alas, but Ryan is also an electrician and handyman. Given what we've seen of his work, we're already coming up with a long list of future projects we hope to have his help on!

Ryan completed a deck project for us recently (October 2023) in Lexington. He was very responsive,…read morealways here when he said he'd arrive, and provided a very competitive quote which he stayed true too. He works by himself and to say he is detailed and meticulous would be an understatement. We couldn't be happier with the deck and the way it enhances the utilization of our back yard space and enhances the value of our home. I would highly recommend you give Ryan an opportunity to bid on any home improvement/carpentry projects you may have.

I had a shower re-grout and seal, dishwasher adjustment, and handrail reinforcement done recently…read more Kris Hunt and his son are good people. They do good work, for the most part. The main issue I have, and one that is entirely my fault, is the labor cost. I always get three quotes. Always. But, I've been really busy traveling for work lately and I got into a hurry. I didn't do it this time. That's on me. But, I will share with you my experience to hopefully help you make an informed decision. The shower looks great. I don't have a problem with the workmanship on that. But the initial thought of the work that needed to be done was modified while the work was being done, and the remedy was not as involved as initially thought. I probably should have requested a change order at that point but again, I was in Salt Lake City for a week and time got away from me. I thought the modification should have saved a little money. Kris disagreed. Again, they're good people. Maybe it did turn out to cost the exact same as initially thought. Seems strange to me, but maybe. When Kris explained the final cost it just struck me as high. Kris texted that, "We charge $150 an hour" for labor. Again, this is on me for not doing my due diligence. I agreed to the price. I paid it. Kris cashed the check. Business was done. But, reflecting, $150 an hour for labor is high. Really high. Some might say excessive. It is about twice as high as the highest I've ever seen. Just keep that in mind as the hours add up on a project. It's gonna cost you. The issue I had with the workmanship was missed spots on the painting. It was not well done. I think they might have rushed that and to be honest, I'm gonna have to be ok with that because every hour was costing me $150. I can paint. I'll get to that this weekend. Does leave a bad taste in my mouth, however, after paying such a high labor cost and painting is, well, labor after all. I provided the paint. Look, if you have unlimited funds, I think they're a decent option. Not really sure how to rate them but I do think affordability should factor into a rating as well. So I'm going to go midway on this one. Good people, mixed workmanship, with nosebleed high labor costs.

His estimate came in hundreds cheaper than the others and he is so professional. I know nothing about construction / renovations and he was able to walk me through every step of the way and tell me his recommendations, which was very helpful. He is very friendly and took great care to keep my home clean and stayed in contact very well (always returned my texts, showed up when he said he would, and was just generally a nice person who knows his craft). I cannot recommend Joseph enough and I will 100% call him for future projects around the home. Do yourself a favor and save time and money and give him a call - you will be glad you did!
